Struct CoreConfig

Fields

bare: bool

If true this repository is assumed to be bare and has no working directory associated with it. If this is the case a number of commands that require a working directory will be disabled, such as git-add or git-merge.

This setting is automatically guessed by git-clone or git-init when the repository was created. By default a repository that ends in /.git is assumed to be not bare (bare = false), while all other repositories are assumed to be bare (bare = true).

file_mode: bool

Tells Git if the executable bit of files in the working tree is to be honored.

Some filesystems lose the executable bit when a file that is marked as executable is checked out, or checks out a non-executable file with executable bit on. git-clone or git-init probe the filesystem to see if it handles the executable bit correctly and this variable is automatically set as necessary.

A repository, however, may be on a filesystem that handles the filemode correctly, and this variable is set to true when created, but later may be made accessible from another environment that loses the filemode (e.g. exporting ext4 via CIFS mount, visiting a Cygwin created repository with Git for Windows or Eclipse). In such a case it may be necessary to set this variable to false. See git-update-index.

The default is true (when core.filemode is not specified in the config file).

log_all_ref_updates: bool

Enable the reflog. Updates to a ref <ref> is logged to the file $GIT_DIR/logs/<ref>, by appending the new and old SHA-1, the date/time and the reason of the update, but only when the file exists. If this configuration variable is set to true, missing $GIT_DIR/logs/<ref> file is automatically created for branch heads (i.e. under refs/heads/), remote refs (i.e. under refs/remotes/), note refs (i.e. under refs/notes/), and the symbolic ref HEAD. If it is set to always, then a missing reflog is automatically created for any ref under refs/.

This information can be used to determine what commit was the tip of a branch “2 days ago”.

This value is true by default in a repository that has a working directory associated with it, and false by default in a bare repository.

repository_format_version: u32

Internal variable identifying the repository format and layout version.
